when i can’t find anything funny to regurgitate, there’s always politics. how about this: the United States is secretly paying Iraqi press to run favourable war stories & news.
Many of the articles are presented in the Iraqi press as unbiased news accounts written and reported by independent journalists. The stories trumpet the work of U.S. and Iraqi troops, denounce insurgents, and tout U.S.-led efforts to rebuild the country.
so is that how to teach iraq about democracy and freedom? by controlling the press and planting in the media only the stories that benefit those in control? sounds like the fox news network to me.
